Project title

(B)old

Description of initiative

(B)old is part of the Southbank Centre’s artistic programme for well-being. People living with dementia, and their companions, can explore their creativity in the (B)old project. Led by artists, these creative workshops take place over nine weeks, for two hours every week. Not only are they a place where people can find their artistic voice; they’re also a space to make friends. So far, they have presented: (B)old Words - a series of creative writing sessions; (B)old Moves - a series of dance workshops and (B)old Visions - a series of film-making workshops.
